A barcode check-in system failed at Broward County polling places shortly after polls opened at 7 in the morning, delaying voting. Joe Scott said it was fixed by about 7:20 and urged anyone turned away to return before 7 in the evening. Turning to Miami-Dade voting, Miami-Dade Elections Supervisor Alina Garcia said 19 precinct locations have temporarily moved. She also advised voters to check their assigned location at votemiamidade.gov before heading out. The Florida Division of Elections state file of November 3 provides an early vote-by-mail snapshot for Miami-Dade County. It serves as a midday turnout baseline heading into tonight's returns. And if you're following returns tonight, Local 10 published a Miami-Dade guide showing where to find unofficial results after polls close tonight at 7 in the evening. It points to county pages.
